Rahal gets into Indy via injury
INDIANAPOLIS — Graham Rahal will get a chance to keep his Indianapolis 500 start streak intact after all, replacing the injured Stefan Wilson on Tuesday in the Dreyer & Reinbold entry after failing to qualify for the race with his own team.
Wilson was hospitalized with a fractured vertebra following a crash in practice Monday. He was ruled out of the race, and that left car owners Dennis Reinbold and Don Cusick scrambling for a replacement less than a week before Sunday’s green flag.
Rahal received permission from the Rahal Letterman Lanigan team and Honda to drive the Dreyer & Reinhold Chevrolet in his 16th consecutive 500.
